FELTED FAIRY TREES: 
YEAR 2

One of the greatest attractions for children is situated in the Fitzroy Gardens – Ola Cohn’s Fairies
Tree.  This was the theme and inspiration for the creative use of wool through felting rich layers of colours
into the construction of the Fairy Tree.  Sewing and the creating of fairy characters were used to enhance the
sculpture.

The project took four weeks [12 periods] this included the felting process, the sewing of the tree shape, the
construction of the fairies and attaching them to the sculpture.
